Protecting your goods while in-transit or held in inventory
The value and sensitivity of the products manufactured by life science companies makes the risk management of cargo a critical and strategic function.
Your supply chain is vulnerable to many risks:
- Complex geopolitical issues could threaten the distribution of products into unstable parts of the globe.
- Cargo theft and security threats are constant reminders that companies need to be vigilant.
- Temperature sensitivity, spoilage or deterioration of cargo including suspected damage/fear of loss.
Complementing our industry expertise, we have robust analytic capabilities and supply chain consultancy services, meaning that our life sciences practice group is well equipped to assist you in managing this complex risk environment.
How we serve our clients
We seek to obtain the most cost effective and robust program customised to your individual and unique needs, from raw material, through manufacturing to delivery of finished product to final destination.
We use our own team of actuaries to provide proactive claims advocacy, using industry sector expertise and knowledge to effectively negotiate with insurers and loss adjusters to achieve successful outcomes.
Using industry sector knowledge, our approach is to accurately profile your risk, ask the right questions to ensure we understand your risk exposures and assess the key factors which will drive premium.
To complement our risk focused approach and specialty insurance expertise, we use in house actuaries to provide analytics, loss modelling and risk retention analysis.
We can assist in bringing together your global exposures into one insurance program, ensuring your policy is streamlined, fully compliant and in line with sanction requirements.
